Back in November of last year Demy van Zoggel released the first version of his realism mod for Codemasters' F1 2012 The Game. In the last couple of months the mod has undergone some significant changes that make your offline play of the official F1 simulator a much more realistic and enjoyable experience.

Together with the mod comes the official launch trailer showing the various game improvements in action!

Realistic AI behaviour:


  • AI will overtake more
  • AI might crash at the start, even without player interfering
  • AI will not back out when they are on the inside at a corner
  • AI rarely (but they do) brake late and crash into other drivers
  • AI will not wait until all cars get passed when they are off the track, but will try to merge into the field

Realistic AI strength:


  • AI drivers pace is up to date according to the 2012 season
  • AI is more aggressive

Mechanical Failures and DNF's


  • AI will have more mechanical failures than CM last released patch
  • Mechanical failures happen according to 2012 season, That means HRT will have more mechanical failure than Ferrari
  • Each race will have between 1-5 cars that will retire due mechanical failures, the total can sum up to 7 if there occur some crashes.
  • The DNF's can depend on your racing skill, if you make a lot of mistake the AI gets caught in this and crash into each other. So be sure you're up to the difficulty settings where you belong!

Race Distance


  • There are 5 distances available: 25%, 50%, 75% 100% and Career mode.
  • If you want to play 25% races with tyre scaling, install the 50% mod and select 25% races ingame
  • If you want to play 75% races with tyre scaling, install the 75% mod and select 100% races ingame
  • You cannot play other distances than installed (except for 25%)
  • If you want to play Career mode just install that version, this version also works with Quick races it just doesn't support any tyre scaling

Tyres


  • This mod includes tyre scaling on 50% and 75% races and improved tyre scaling on 100%
  • This is the first mod with tyre scaling that affects the tyre wear!
  • Fixed tyre selection on Brazil and Texas
  • Tyre wear does not work in career. If you want to play this mod for career, install the Career version of the mod

great mod.im doing 25% races using 50% mod and im wondering if this mod is working correct because in every race ive done a car spins off and sits on the side of the track the entire race so theres waved yellows in that sector for the rest of the race.also im racing 4 williams on legend mode and now its seems very easy 2 win races as ai stay on there worn tires 4 to long and spin everywhere so is this normal? either way its more fun than b4 tho so thumbs up haha.
